"Exceptionally well. Jager Landscaping took my 20+ year old tiered garden walls and redesigned and rebuilt the walls to grade better with my sloped backyard. Crew was extremely professional and knowledgeable."

"Justin called me back after just a few minutes, after leaving him a message about my immediate need for lawn service. That alone is a good reason to do business with him. In my experience, as a rule, you don?t typically get a timely response if you get one at all. He met me at the property the next morning and I had a quote that evening. Subsequently hired him and have been happy and less stressed ever since. Can?t go wrong with this guy. Thanks Justin!!"

"I would give them 6 stars if I could. They are a great outfit. Steve (owner) was very responsive to my questions. They delivered 18 rolls of VERY Healthy Bermuda Sod. I do not walk well; so I asked Dylan (one of the delivery guys) to place the rolls near where I had to use them. He happily did so. My wife and I will be doing more landscaping in front of our house in the near future and I plan to hire them again. Hands down, a great outfit. I looked at buying sod at the big box stores; their goods did not even look half as good as what was delivered. Thank YOu!"

"We hired Sembrador Landscaping to clean up an abundance of overgrown weeds and debris that accumulated on our property that my husband can no longer maintain due to age and medical conditions. The crew was professional, polite, and worked diligently. The owner sent pictures and texts updating me throughout the day. We will use them again and totally recommend this company."

"Hired G&R to fix up my deck, stain it, and paint a shed. The work involved replacing all of the horizontal hand rails, and tightening the floor boards. G&R stained the entire deck by hand (including the lattice work). Gave me a good price and stayed with that price. The deck was 35 years old, but you couldn't tell by looking at it now. My neighbor hired them to do some landscaping work after seeing them work on my property. Willie was easy to work with. Would definitely hired them again."

Lawn Care FAQs, answered by experts

Fescue grass is a relatively low-maintenance grass type, meaning it doesn’t require much more attention than regular watering, dethatching, and mowing. Some fescues even grow slowly enough for hard-to-reach areas, particularly those inaccessible by the mower. Following a seasonal maintenance schedule will help your fescue lawn stay green, healthy, and durable for years to come.

Water your yard a little more deeply after a drought for about two weeks (while still avoiding overwatering). Continue to water in the early morning hours before 10 a.m. You'll also want to invest in some high-quality fertilizer to get more nutrients to your roots and help them grow back stronger and quicker. Look up your grass and soil type, or do a soil test, to see what type of fertilizer you need.

Mowing at least once a week during the growing season is a good general rule. However, every lawn is different, and factors like frequent rain and fertilizer use can cause grass to grow faster, potentially requiring mowing as often as every four days. When you mow, always follow the 'one-third rule': never cut more than one-third of the grass blade's height at once, as this can weaken it and prevent it from taking in proper nutrients. For most grass types, the ideal height is around 2 to 3 inches, though some warm-weather grasses do better when kept shorter at about 1.5 to 2 inches.

The cost of yard work depends on the type of work you need done. The average cost of lawn care is $300, but you could pay as little as $100 or up to $500.

Your St. Augustine grass might look bad due to cold winter months, drought, pest invasion, or lawn disease. The first step is properly identifying the problem. Once you’ve figured out what’s making your grass look bad, you’ll need to employ the correct treatments. These treatments may include:

  • Properly mow your lawn and keep the clippings on the lawn as organic matter.

  • Use healthy irrigation techniques.

  • Use the right amount of fertilizer.

  • Keep up a good, regular maintenance routine.

  • Use fungicides.
